Are you serious!? You can't possibly think the school district paid for this! Just another example of someone looking to bash JPS without proper information. How about taking the positive...new ways to help students deal with behavior issues. That's ALWAYS a good use of any funds.

Yes, some of the events could be considered pricey, but if the kids enjoy it, isn't it worth it? I took my son and daughter for the first time on Saturday and they had a blast! So much so that my son was up at 6 a.m. to go back and watch the launch on Sunday. Thank you to all of the event coordinators and sponsors for making the most of the situation. We'll be back!!!

What a complete joke!!!! Way to handcuff another kid MHSAA. You're a laughable "organization." To bad the moms didn't shut you down completely. Absolute BS from a bunch of hypocrites. At least you can't screw up Mr. Basketball this year...or can you?

Same old MHSAA BS. It's a damn shame that a hypocritical, monopolizing, tyrannical "organization" can keep a kid who busts his tail from playing in a camp all-star game. Good job, handcuff another kid and then say you're trying to help them. Get real. MHSAA and their "rules" are a complete joke...just like their Mr. Basketball award.

anderdog, you're not serious are you? While I agree that Nix isn't the best Mr. Basketball ever, I haven't seen enough of him to bash him as some have. That's unfair to a 17-18 year old kid. But if you were at the game as you claim, then 1. You should have gotten a program to find out who Keith Appling is, and 2. If you know anything about in-state basketball, you'd know he already gave a verbal committment to MSU. And for the record, I hope he de-commits and goes to Michigan.

Darryll Stinson is much better than that. DeMarcus Boysaw and Virgil McGuire are double digit scorers and major contributers on that team. 10 ppg works for Johnson even though he's got plenty of help. Stison gets punished for having talented teammates. Boysaw and McGuire should have been mentioned as well. Typical, I'm sure this post will get deleted too.

Please help me understand how Darryll Stinson can be in such low regard with everything he and his team accomplished this season? Top that with absolutely no mention of anyone else on the entire Jackson squad and it makes me wonder. If Holt or Okemos had won the conference, they'd have two or maybe three guys listed out of the 10 + teams you stated. No DeMarcus Boysaw or Virgil McGuire out of 10 teams is perplexing. They both are double digit scorers, Boysaw is just over 9 rebs and almost 3 blocks, Mcguire averages almost 5 ast and 5 steals. I am convinced they are better than some of the guys you mentioned.

It's clear that the Jackson students don't really get it. How can you have a school that big, with that small of a student section. Maybe the players are people that the student body doesn't really want to support? Maybe since there's no SUPERSTAR, nobody cares. Or maybe the students have better things to do.Whatever it is, their student section is weak!
